Half Yearly Promotions List

Anyone yet seen the 1 Jul Promotions List? I know the list of names would probably not fill the back of a postage stamp these days, but surely there must be some!

Nothing on the Manning Intranet site either (and no pre-release to COs) - probably taking too long to type all the names on the list......

surely the half-yearly redundancy list has superseded it?
Sack all those due promotion to save costs

I'm afraid that there IS a half yearly promotion list - perhaps you were told that there wasn't to avoid the sorrow associated with telling you bad news about your non-appearance?

I dimly remember something about there not being one this Jul though - or perhaps the madness that is sweeping across Defence has eaten my brain too?

For those with Intranet access - you can prove that my first para is correct by going to http://www.manning.raf.r.mil.uk/revi...f_yearly_1.htm

And for those who can't access Intranet, the clue is at the end of the title!

To be fair, Switchmonkey is right in that there are no flt lt to sqn ldr promotions in the Jan 11 list. However, I didn't think the new policy had kicked in for the other ranks yet.

In any case, they should publish an annual list for the flt lt to sqn ldr promotions and the last one was Jul 10.

But I'm definitely not expecting to be in it anywhere!

Out of interest, is reading the list when its released to one and all, the first inkling that the lucky winners have that they're promoted?

What makes you think there will be more than one winner?

Are you hoping to get picked A1 R? Surely your boss would tell you first?

T,

Not me - I haven't been promoted by the RAF for at least 7 years and 10 months.

13 years 7 months here. Not complaining though, far from it in fact. Anyway, PA has its upsides.

MechGov,

No, you haven't won..... 29 and bit years in my case, and I'm sure I haven't won either.

I was at a brief from Manning about staff training for Officers (ROAD?) a few months back, and I didn't fit anywhere on their "legacy" tables. I did point out that I had passed the C exam and OCC (not JOCC....!!), but I mainly got puzzled looks.....!!!
